Thrilling books and gripping stories, all in one place.
One of the fathers of modern science fiction - and a definite must-read! When I started this I was worried I would find it much the same way I found Dune - boring and overlong - but this was the complete opposite. Every part of this novel made me want to keep on reading, keep... Continue Reading →
You know what's worse than writer's block? Writer's indecisiveness. I've just come down from an editing high - a couple of weeks of meticulously going through a thriller I'm working on, up and down, back and forth. It's finally at a place where I can leave it in the hands of someone else. Now, while... Continue Reading →
Monstrous demons clash against dark and devastating magic in this fantasy novel full of adventure, thrills and betrayal. This is the second book in the Champion of Psykoria series, and though it's been a while since I read the first, the world came back to me pretty quickly. We follow Jrak Swadoh - King Breetor's...

My psychological horror novel At The Gate is coming out this year - releasing this fall - and we're close to sharing some very exciting news: the official cover reveal and the date for pre-orders! But before that, I want to offer you one last chance to get an early copy! Interested in receiving an... Continue Reading →
Will I ever write again? My wife and I are currently staying away at a cabin by the sea, somewhere on the Western coast of Norway. It's a family cabin, a place we've spent a lot of time when we were younger, a place we used to call home, and we're so lucky we got... Continue Reading →
Never, ever, read this book. Here's a fun fact: we don't have required reading in Norway (at least we didn't in the 90's where I grew up). That's not to say I didn't have to read things, I just didn't have to read loads of old books from some arbitrary, outdated list. But I'm trying... Continue Reading →
We've all heard the saying 'when one door closes another one opens', but does that mean that if you open a door, you're shutting one behind you? I'll stop talking in riddles - and explain that I'm talking about myself. I find myself at a kind of crossroads professionally, where if I go one way,... Continue Reading →
As an archaeologist I'm always fascinated by books and authors who dare play with history. Whether it is in fantastical worlds that only draw inspirations from our own, like Tolkien; historical mysteries and conspiracies like those woven by Dan Brown; or those incredible tales set in a more accurate past like Conn Iggulden. No matter... Continue Reading →
I've got a new favorite type of science fiction, and it's whatever Andy Weir writes! I never read the Martian. I never read a lot of things, but I never read the Martian either. I saw the movie though, and I liked it enough to remember Andy Weir's name when I saw Project Hail Mary... Continue Reading →
Ever read a book and felt a wave of sadness wash over you as you realize it's over and you can never relive that adventure in quite the same way again? Apparently that happens when you write books too. I just finished a novel I started in November. It was supposed to be last years... Continue Reading →
